MSP Anniversary P226, and my thoughts

With all the Sig bashing going on, I thought I would share some of my thoughts on this company.

They produced this amazing P226, .40 cal, DA/SA, commemorative model for the Michigan State Police 100th anniversary in 2017. Sometimes I spend hours just holding and admiring this.

I for one am not giving up on this company and in fact just bought a used, P320 compact in 9mm, two tone. It is a great gun and I am sure that Sig will get through this.

Nice P226! While my current DA/SA SIGs are all 9mm, I once owned a 226 and a few 229s in .40 (some with a .357 SIG barrel, to boot) - I thoroughly enjoyed that pistol / cartridge combo.

Very nice 226, TJ. I have a very nice 75th anniversary Beretta 92 from a slightly different MSP.

I carried a P226 for several years in law enforcement. Still my favorite pistol. That is one of the nicest 226 pistols I have ever seen.

The "Sig Bashing" is only for one model.
I haven't heard anyone talk bad about the P-226's!
THAT P-226 is BEAUTIFUL! I'm a sucker for nice engraving like that!

I came on with a P-226 in 9mm, and out of the box, one of the most accurate handguns I own! No where near as nice as that one!

Looks a lot like the SAO model they did for Texas DPS. Nice presentation as well.

Very nice, thanks for sharing. I've seen some of the retired duty Sigs in the wild but alas have not been successful in bringing one home.
